Redknapp to leave role as Tottenham manager - reports

The Spurs boss was apparently in talks with chairman Daniel Levy on Wednesday over a new contract but he was only willing to offer the 65-year-old a rolling 12-month deal.

Redknapp, though, is believed to have wanted a longer contract at White Hart Lane and with the pair unable to agree it appears the manager will now exit the club.

The news comes a day after he lambasted rumours that he was set to resign from his job, claiming it to be ‘an outrage’ that the speculation was being spread.

The former Portsmouth boss guided Spurs to fourth in the Premier League last season for the second time in three years but the club won’t be playing in the Champions League next year because Chelsea won the competition and take their place, which also upset Levy.

Everton manager David Moyes is the early favourite to take over the position, if Redknapp does leave, with most bookmakers.
